    I just realised I could have been using the Goddess's Blessing skill to remove the Arcane Power penalty...

    That might make it fairly doable.
    Does Arcane Power just affect the damage I do, or also the damage I take? I've failed to find clear info about this.

    Arcane Force affects both the damage you deal and receive, to a small extent. At high levels of Arcane Force, monsters will deal less damage (as far as I've seen).

    Whatever the AF force value is for that map, take half of it, add it to the requirement, and that's the amount needed for a) 1.5x damage against the monsters and b) only take 1 damage from mobs (eg: AF is 80. 80/2 = 40, 80+40=120, so 120 AF will give you full damage boost + 1 damage from mobs).

    Just got into VJ yesterday. Collected the Happy Memories. Only really doable at the moment due to all the crazy event bonus stats.

    Can I use Arcane Symbol selectors if I haven't completed anything there yet? I've got a pile that will expire shortly (this is as bad as those expiring Nodestones) and I don't know how far I have to get to unlock the VJ one.

    If possible, try and find someone who can help you. Their kills contribute to the etc drops you need for each section, and obviously they are able to kill much faster. Especially once you get to Cave of Repose, it becomes reallllly difficult to attack/survive.

  • Which class should I play in 2018 ?

    Blaster has the highest damage of the three, but also requires the most work to get said damage - it uses a weird intricate system of combos to boost damage (that aren't really well explained within the skills, so you kinda need to figure it out yourself).

    Ark and Cadena are both really fun - very mobile classes, good damage, far easier management systems for their class gimmicks compared to Blaster. My personal ranking would be Cadena > Ark > Blaster.

  • AFKing for determination inaccurate?

    Unfortunately it doesn't always click at 10 second intervals. I've seen it click as early as 8 seconds, and as late as 17 seconds, so I'm thinking you're getting a bunch more later clicks, causing you to get less determination.

  • why is this cancer a thing

    We were promised a transparency slider bar... probably about a year ago now ? As you can see, they never delivered on that promise. It was one of the most UNhelpful ui changes they made. If I'm opening my map in the middle of a battleground, I'm doing that cause I WANT to. And even if it was an accident, it takes a second to close it.

    Sigh.
